Surgical masks reduce COVID-19 spread: study – Fox News

A new study that examined the effects of mask-wearing on the spread of COVID-19 found that even partial adoption helps to limit the spread.  The study, led by researchers at Stanford Medicine and Yale University, was a large-scale, randomized trial using 350,000 people from 600 villages in rural Bangladesh. Those living in villages were randomly assigned a number of interventions to promote the use of masks.  Researchers found that those living in the villages with such interventions were around 11% less likely to develop COVID-19 than those who did not. The effectiveness increased to nearly 35% for people over 60 years old, according to Stanford Medicine.  ABOUT 3 IN 4 PREGNANT WOMEN IN US UNVACCINATED AGAINST COVID-19 "Our study is the first randomized controlled trial exploring wh...

Pfizers RSV vaccine enters late-stage trial, company says – Fox News

Pharmaceutical company Pfizer announced on Thursday that its vaccine for the respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, has begun the third phase of its clinical trials among adults, which comes almost two weeks after the Food Drug Administration (FDA) has fully authorized Pfizer's SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19 vaccine. Phase 3 of the clinical trials prompted Pfizer to initiate RENOIR (RSV vaccine Efficacy study iN Older adults Immunized against RSV disease), which evaluates the efficacy, immunogenicity and safety of a single dose of its respiratory syncytial virus vaccine candidate in adults ages 60 years or older. RENOIR is expected to test around 30,000 participants over the age of 60 globally, says Pfizer. RSV, commonly mistaken for COVID-19 due to similarities in symptoms, is a common respirat...

NeNe Leakes shares video in memory of husband Gregg after his death – Page Six

A video is worth a thousand words. NeNe Leakes has yet to speak out after the death of her husband, Gregg Leakes, but she shared a sweet memory of them together Thursday.

Amazon releases first Wheel of Time trailer ahead of its November 19th debut – Engadget

Amazon has shared the first trailer for its long-awaited adaptation of Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time. If you’re a newcomer to the fantasy series, the clip sketches out the basics of the world the author created before his death in 2007.  In the Wheel of Time, only women known as Aes Sedai can channel magic. A powerful sorceress named Moiraine (played by Gone Girl and Hostiles actor Rosamund Pike) comes across a small town called Two Rivers where she finds five young men and women. One of them she believes is the Dragon Reborn, an entity that could be either the savior or destroyer of humanity. Amazon first announced it was working on a live-action adaptation of Robert Jordan’s 14-volume fantasy back in 2018, but like with the company’s other big-budget fantasy adaptation, filming w...
